I try to tidy up everyday after I sew! I have cats and worry about pins and stray threads. I’ve learned it’s easier to get started on sewing if everything is in the right area,.

Me too, I put small and sharp things away, kitty loves thread spools to bat around

. Cold and cover with a towel (for mouth to sleep on) the project I'm quilting.

I put clutter in closet, which needs a major overhaul "when I get caught up"!

I'm a bit like that myself. Organised chaos for me and rarely forget where something is. I clean/organize when i feel the need and have the want
